Contested Alderman Race in Branson

The final day of sign ups for the Missouri April Municipal Election sees an Alderman Position in Branson being contested.

In Ward 2, Incumbent Gary Schulz is being challenged for the position by Ashley Harkness who entered the race Tuesday morning. Schulz is completing his first term in the position. 

The other two races in Branson are uncontested, with Alex Williams the only name on the ballot for Ward 1 and Ralph LeBlanc the same for Ward 3. Williams is looking to succeed current Ward 1 Alderman Marshall Howden who earlier announced he was not seeking reelection while LeBlanc is looking to serve a third term in Ward 3. 

All persons who have signed up for races in the state will now have their names certified by election officials as the final step to being on the ballot for the April 7 Election.
